BEAUTY AND THE BEAST: Gaston at the Pub

Tonight, two digitally recreated B/Gs from BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. There's a lot of taxidermy going on...This second pan is another case of not being able to remove character art, but at least I could piece together the entire pan, which is still pretty fascinating to see...Notice, the character entering on the right is also under Gaston's chair! (The pan starts to move in the very first frame, as he walks into the scene, thus no way to eliminate him...)

Hi Rob,I'm a art student at The Nova Scotia College of Art and Design in Canada. I love your animation backgrounds blog, thanks so much for making these paintings available for everyone to see.

My favorites are the Disney and MGM backgrounds from the 40s and early 50s. I find them fascinating because they are created with open spaces for action to happen within. I'd like to use some of the images from your blog for some paintings I'm working on , but I'd like to get your permission first.
